Spiritual Exercises

It is impossible to reach the heights of spirituality without learning to say hello. But in the works of the holy fathers, this is not taught—just as they do not teach how to fight depression, make friends, raise children, and much more. Ancient Christian asceticism was created for monks; it is not suitable for laypeople. So perhaps it is worth starting spiritual work on oneself with cultivating politeness, delicacy, and responsiveness... In the new book by Father Savva, there is a new, unexpected perspective on spiritual life and the familiar style beloved by readers: a bit of philosophy, a bit of humor, and a lot of kindness.
